So, I've created a list with 2 objects in. I want to make sure they both update. 

public static void Update(GameTime gameTime)
{
    Player.Update(gameTime);
    Seagull.Update(gameTime);
    foreach (Seagull seagull in seagulls)
    {
        seagull.Update(gameTime);//Here is where the error is. 
    }
}

This is the error observed Error

Help would be greatly appreciated.

    Does [this question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1100009/member-method-cannot-be-accessed-with-an-instance-reference) help? It was the first result in Google, and suggests that your `Seagull.Update()` method is static. Perhaps you didn't mean for that method to be static? – Jacob Nov 24 '15 at 15:34

    It's preferable to include the error text in the question rather than linking to a screen shot. – juharr Nov 24 '15 at 15:48

the error tells us that seagull.Update is a static method, which means it can't be called for each seagull, only for 'seagulls' as a whole. I suspect you don't want this, and will need to stop it being a static method (by removing the static keyword).
